The chief financial officer of a hospital, who oversaw all workers’ comp claims, has been convicted of falsifying documentation on his own workers’ comp claim. The 299th Travis County District Court has convicted Donald Rexrode of falsifying documentation and issued a one-year deferred adjudication in which Rexrode must pay full restitution to the Texas Workers’ Comp Insurance Fund plus a $1,000 fine. Rexrode, the CFO at Brownfield Regional Medical Center, oversaw all workers’ comp cases for the hospital’s employees, including his own claim. According to the prosecution, Rexrode falsely reported that he was working reduced hours and receiving reduced wages when in fact, he was working his regularly scheduled hours and receiving his full salary. Consequently, he received partial indemnity benefits for the hours he allegedly was unable to work.
